Worktop repair in Heversham without replacing anything

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. If you are dealing with scratches and knife marks and a damaged sink edge, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Heversham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
